I was filling my Dillon SD and found a prize. Just like Cracker Jacks. Problem was I couldn't figure out what it was. Some detective work revealed it was the Dillon plastic powder bushing! Evidently it fell out into the powder can as I worked the slide to clear the remaining powder from the measure. Anyone else experienced this problem?
Geez I love reloading! Wonder what I'll get in the next can? Catpop
 
25+ years of using a Dillon Square Deal has taught me to always keep a finger over the bottom of the powder mill when emptying powder... and now you know to do that too. :)
 
Well, I bought a set of Lee .45 Colt dies and found an extra item in the box that I cannot identify.
It's a piece of steel with fine threads on the outside.
It's hollow.
It's a little smaller in length and OD than the dies.
It reminds me of one of the threaded sleeves used with my old Warner & Swasey tapping machine.
